This is also why KOSA, FOSTA/SESTA and the age verification grift panopticon are socially apocalyptic

KOSA is cowritten by the guy who wrote SESTA/FOSTA, so yeah, the time to act is NOW

This is exactly the type of lifesaving resource that sex workers in the US lost after SESTA/FOSTA
Do you have a violent client? Are you being stalked, blackmailed or threatend? Report them at Ugly Mugs NL.
You can also check here if clients have been violent to colleague sw-ers.

FOSTA/SESTA had enormous bipartisan support.

Kamala *co-sponsored* it, and championed it.
Oh: FOSTA/SESTA?

Passed 388-25 in the house, 97-2 in the senate. Ubiquitous digital surveillance of sexworkers was *overwhelmingly* bipartisan.

The democrats didn't give a single shit about that apparatus possibly being expanded to include pregnant people.

If your answer is "FOSTA/SESTA", you're correct, but the *reason* FOSTA/SESTA had that effect is because it created an explicit carveout in §230 for "sex trafficking".

only thing I want to port over from X-the-CSAM-app, in times like these, is a long thread w/ my own reporting re: who supported SESTA/FOSTA, what then-Senator Harris did and did not do (tldr: SESTA/FOSTA was really Blumenthal and Klobuchar's bill), and what SESTA/FOSTA did and did not do...

The third episode of my Section 230 mini series is out!! @siridahl.com joined to chat about FOSTA/SESTA, the devastating effects of “reforming” Section 230, and how chipping away at 230 is absolutely NOT “cracking down on big tech.”

who backed FOSTA-SESTA
The converse is that it's actively being attacked and repressed by the Republican party, so...

where's the viable 3rd party that's pro LGBTQ+/sex-work/neuro-spiciness ?

“This bill won’t pass”
“This won’t affect me outside the U.S.”

This is ignorant. These things trickle down. Go educate yourself on censorship. SESTA/FOSTA. KOSA. Age verification in US/UK/Australia. Tumblr bans. Backpage. Visa/Mastercard. ITCHIO. Patreon.

This isn’t the first canary…

inshallah the demise of all of those involved in fosta-sesta

It's been 6.5 yrs since FOSTA, and there are days it still feels like a fresh wound.

> FOSTA/SESTA
I challenge you to find a clearer example of “laws are fake” than this.

Didn’t it used to be SESTA-FOSTA or am I having one of those Berenstain moments

Anyway,

why is kamala harris, the inventor of fosta/sesta, texting my whore line
March 30, 2026 at 10:39 PM
Everywhere these bills are passed, it's been done over the objection of sex workers and sex worker advocacy groups, who recognize it for what it really is — aggressive criminalization of income from sex work.

Doesn't matter if it's FOSTA-SESTA, Nordic Model, Equality Model.

the eternal problem of technology regulation:

“regulate this! wait, shit, no, not like that”

see: SOPA, FOSTA/SESTA, etc

would that more than three or four people in congress understood the internet
I continue to be furious with Congress refusal to regulate technology, doesn’t everyone see where this is going?

Your favorite progressive politicians are extremely horny for bills that restrict access. Elizabeth Warren is notoriously anti-SWer and keeps putting her name on these bills.

Said before will say again: even Bernie Sanders signed off on FOSTA-SESTA before he VERY tepidly said he shouldn't have.
I’m glad to see people protesting Discord forcing IDs for age verification, but what I need everyone to understand is that there’s immense bipartisan pressure to make the entire internet like this, and they are likely going to succeed unless something drastic happens
February 10, 2026 at 7:31 PM
This is a good time to remind people that Warren is also very pro-KOSA and was very much in favor of FOSTA-SESTA. It's time to stop calling her progressive.
We should be very clear about what's happening right now--Democrats like Elizabeth Warren believe supporting Platner will increase their power and they’re ok with throwing Jews under the bus. It's the same calculation so many Democrats make about the trans community and other marginalized groups.

this April it will have been eight years (!!!) since SESTA/FOSTA and it feels like a century in SW years
I deeply hate how SWs are expected now to have lengthy newsletters, 17 social media accounts, constantly changing ad copy and photos, and a plethora of other admin tasks to be keeping up with. I miss pre-SESTA/FOSTA when I could toss up a pic on Craigslist and get 17 credible inquiries in 10 minutes

Not exactly “tiny”, but: SESTA-FOSTA
5. What is one tiny, overlooked moment in history that you think changed the course of the world?

Sex workers are on social media because they aren't allowed to be anywhere else.

Wish yall had paid more attention to sesta/fosta and the backpage shutdown
We have to remember a big part of why sex workers are advertising on social media is because actual sites for advertising keep getting shutdown.

The backpage shutdown has a massive impact on the community.
What's a healthy way to talk about the proliferation of porn on social media and pop culture without sounding like I belong on the daily wire? Is there a space between appreciating sex work and feeling like porn is too widespread and prominent online?
February 3, 2025 at 7:16 PM
The biggest thing I learned from sesta/fosta was that the plain text of a law doesn't entirely matter when it comes to internet platforms.... A lot of platforms reacted to cesta/fosta by cracking down on stuff that probably still wasn't illegal. They don't want the hassle of hashing it out.

You can't be anti-trafficking and pro-FOSTA/SESTA/KOSA.

You need to LISTEN to survivors and people in the industry.

Thinking about pre-SESTA/FOSTA is really the Roman Empire for sexy people
